I got my first motorcycle when I turned sixteen
I remember my mama raisin' cane with me
She said "Son tell me why you want to ride that thing"
She didn't know about the blond at the Dairy QueenI got my own reasons why I do what I do
I like to ride motorcycles
She likes it too
I like to ride motorcycles
She likes it tooI always wore my hair just a little too long
Daddy didn't like it and he made no bones
If I'd have gotten it cut like he wanted me to
She wouldn't have had nothin' left to run her fingers throughI got my own reasons why I do what I do
I like to wear my hair long
She likes it too
I like to wear my hair long
She likes it tooI remember ridin' around with my buddies back home
Listenin' to some Country on the radio
When they tried to change the station to some Rock 'n' Roll
I'd turn the Opry up just as loud as it would goI got my own reasons why I do what I do
I like Country music
She likes it too
I like Country music
She likes it tooNow I got a big Harley
And my hair is still long
And I'm still listening to a Country songI got my own reasons
Why I do what I do
I know what I like
She likes it too
I know what I like
She likes it tooYeah I know what I like
And she likes it too
